Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Higher than thou shalt stands I will (the heroes), and higher than I will stands I am (the Greek gods).

Friedrich Nietzsche
Reason is the cause of our falsification of the evidence of the senses. In so far as the senses show becoming, passing away, change, they do not lie.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you know the why, you can live any how.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is good? All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself. What is bad? All that is born of weakness. What is happiness? The feeling that power is growing, that resistance is overcome.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The higher culture an individual attains, the less field there is left for mockery and scorn.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever has provoked men to rage against him has always gained a party in his favor, too.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Beauty is for the artist something outside all orders of rank, because in beauty opposites are tamed the highest sign of power, namely power over opposites moreover, without tension: - that violence is no longer needed: that everything follows, obeys, so easily and so pleasantly - that is what delights the artist's WILL TO POWER.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man has character, he has also his typical experience, which always recurs.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How can a man know himself? He is a thing dark and veiled and if the hare has seven skins, man can slough off seventy times seven and still not be able to say: this is really you, this is no longer outer shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman learns to hate to the extent to which her charms decrease.
Friedrich Nietzsche
